Animate, After effects, and premiere are all applications used in the production of film; yet each have their own unique and interesting features about them that sets them apart from each other. Adobe After Effects is used to create simple frame by frame animations, which is very different from Animates’ keyframing. A frame by frame animation is created by putting multiple pictures, or cels together in rapid succession, creating the impression of movement. Keyframing makes animating quicker and more efficient because you only have to have a start and an end picture, the program does the rest for you. Premiere is an application that focuses more on the audio and video editing aspect of the film creation process. Premiere is a lot simpler to use than Animate or After Effects because it has less tools that you need to learn how to use in order to master the application. Premiere has similar functions to After Effects because some of the same effects for motion are the same. All of these programs have timelines that you use to see where everything is placed at a certain time, but you can only put down keyframes in Animate and After effects. Premiere has a timeline where you just put different clips on the timeline and piece them together. Overall these programs are quite similar in nature, but they all have their own qualities that differentiate them from each other.

Another thing about this animation that appeals to me is that when he sits down to play it seems as if he doesn't want you to see that he is having fun without you, making you feel more connected to the character and game. One of the biggest reasons why I chose this animation was that I have always liked Donkey Kong when a lot of people hate him for some reason. I have played with him in Mario Kart, DK 1981, DK: Tropical freeze, and others; only building my appeal to this particular character. The creators of the animation made this idle animation seem more natural by making Donkey Kong ease into the position, it’s not as if he just went from standing to sitting in no time at all. Imagine if you were sitting at your desk one day, and then you suddenly appeared across the room to sharpen your pencil. Does that seem very natural? I didn’t think so, that’s why the animators make the character ease into the position more naturally.
